 i cannot make kernel calls 
Author Message
Post i cannot make kernel calls
i can load & run child programs
but i still cannot make kernel calls like this
Code:
#define MK_FP( seg,ofs )( (void _seg * )( seg ) +( void near * )( ofs ))
void far main(){
((void (far*)(char *))MK_FP(0x4000, 0x288))("Hi!"); //4000:288 is the address of kernel print
//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ freezes or malfunctions
asm {retf} //compiler wants to return near
asm {db 0EAH} //end marker
}

parsing C is such a horifying task i think i rather fight with current compilers

yea, I've been debating if I should comply with C or just do a language of my own... and also I hear pascal is easier to make ...

everyone wants to program in C so if I don't comply with C standards I lose their willingness to try my compiler... but at the same time I loose willingness to develop a C compiler because it has its complications...

I am also thinking why not BASIC

Im about to work on one, as a team with my friends. It will be a web oriented, compiled language, with a focus on easy communication. (MySQL, MSSQL, ect) The syntax will be a mix between C# and PHP. We have a syntax sheet almost finished, and we are set to start in the coming months. We'll probably have a rough beta in about a year. ... Thats being optimistic, but it helps when you have a bunch of comp sci majors as friends, at home, and across the world! :P

and it helps that we all agree on what we want, that helps!
